I want to write a sage math code to find the coefficient of $x^{15}d^7r^8$ in the expansion of $$\frac{1}{1-\bigg( \frac{xd+(xd)^2+(xd)^3}{1+(xd)+(xd)^2+(xd)^3} + \frac{xr+(xr)^2+(xr)^3}{1+xr+(xr)^2+(xr)^3} \bigg)}$$

I use free version of ChatGPT,but it writes always wrong code because it knows SAGE until 2021. Can you help me ?

Well... your expression is a rational fraction of two polynomials, of degree 6 in $x$. There is no such thing as an $x^{15}\dots$ coefficient.

However, this fraction can be approximated (Taylor development) as series in $x$, whose coefficient in $x^{15}$ may contain terms in $d^7$, which may contain a term in $r8$. An obvious way to search is :

sage: foo=1/(1-((x*d+(x*d)^2+(x*d)^3)/(1+x*d+(x*d)^2+(x*d)^3)+(x*r+(x*r)^2+(x*r)^3)/(1+x*r+(x*r)^2+(x*r)^3)))
sage: foo.series(x, 16).coefficient(x^15).expand().coefficient(d^7).expand().coefficient(r^8)
3296

I use free version of ChatGPT,

Don't. For mathematical purposes, ChatGPT (and other LLM engines) are (expensive) noise|bullshit generators. Do it yourself.

EDIT : lazier alternative:

sage: R1.<x,d,r>=LazyPowerSeriesRing(QQbar)
sage: foo=1/(1-((x*d+(x*d)^2+(x*d)^3)/(1+x*d+(x*d)^2+(x*d)^3)+(x*r+(x*r)^2+(x*r)
....: ^3)/(1+x*r+(x*r)^2+(x*r)^3)))

foo is the (infinite) polynomial approximating youir fraction with an arbitrary precision. The term you seek is of total degree 30, therefore one of the terms of :

sage: foo[30] # Alternative : foo.coefficient(30)
x^15*d^12*r^3 + 65*x^15*d^11*r^4 + 546*x^15*d^10*r^5 + 1860*x^15*d^9*r^6 + 3296*x^15*d^8*r^7 + 3296*x^15*d^7*r^8 + 1860*x^15*d^6*r^9 + 546*x^15*d^5*r^10 + 65*x^15*d^4*r^11 + x^15*d^3*r^12

eliminating the terms of too high degree in $d$ and $r$ gives us the relevant term :

sage: foo[30].truncate(d, 8).truncate(r, 9)
3296*x^15*d^7*r^8

HTH,

This problem admits an analytic solution, and I strongly suspect it's a homework problem, which does not require using any CAS.

I'd be quite interested by (hints to) your analytic solution...

First hint is that the coefficient in question is the same as in $\sum_{k=0}^{15} (...)^k$, where $(...)$ denotes the same expression in parentheses as in the original expression.

@Emmanuel Charpentier: I don't want to spoil the problem for OP, but you are welcome to email me if anything is unclear.
